I get the same sort of errors, unless I startup the Microsoft Windows command 
window with run as administrator.

Subject: TSMVE vmcli syntax

Has anyone mastered vmcli syntax?  I'm starting out with trying to do a query.  
Here's my query and the results:

c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Tivoli\TDPVMware\VMwarePlugin\scripts>vmcli
-f inquire_detail -q vmfs
#TASK 6988 inquire_detail 20130611140938244
#RUN 6978 20130611140938244
#LANG en_US
#PARAM BACKEND=TSM
#ERROR ANS1087E (RC106)  Access to the specified file or directory is denied
#PARAM STATUS=error
#END RUN 6978 20130611140938353
#END TASK 6988
#INFO FMM16014I The return code is 2.
#END

c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Tivoli\TDPVMware\VMwarePlugin\scripts>

Any pointers to what I'm missing?
